World Environment Day 2012

ECSLP is celebrating the World Environment Day 2012 so we remind ourselves and others of the importance of caring for our environment. Remember that every action counts, so join us: every year, everywhere, everyone. More information is coming up.

World Environment Day was established by the United Nations General Assembly to mark the opening of the 1972 Stockholm Conference. World Environment Day thematic celebrations have in the past included caring for the earth and water, the ozone layer, climate change, desertification and sustainable development.

The 2012 World Environment Day theme is "Green Economy: Does it include you?" 2012 is also the 40th anniversary for World Environment Day, since the creation of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in 1972.
